Marcus Freeman wasn't sure if Joshua Burnham was going to be able to play based on how he looked during practice at times. But the junior defensive end played a key role in ND's dominant defensive performance.

“I remember asking him, ‘Are you going to be able to go?’" Freeman shared after the game. "He said, ‘Coach, there's no way I'm not going to be able to play.’ He really did some good things and made a huge interception. But just take your hat off to him because some people maybe wouldn't have played with the pain that he goes through, but he's a tough individual. I'm glad we have him out there.”
